H is for...

Today's post is brought to you today by the letter H.
H is for hiking.










Hiking is one of the things that I enjoy doing the most. I love getting outside, feeling the heat or the cold- seeing parts of the landscape that you wouldn't see via car, train or plane.









There is something about the feeling you get when you have hiked to the top of a mountain or a hill. Looking down at all that is below.

















There is something amazing about having your own muscles and bones carry you to a point on the map.










I love the feeling of earning my dinner and my sleep. Ever notice how things taste better on the trail?
Hubby and I are avid hikers, we try to make at least on good trek every summer/early spring.

















We are lucky enough to have a crew of friends that are equally excited to get out and explore to test their endurance and their camp gear.

















We are hoping to hit a few spots this summer. TheLost Cost in California, the summit of Mt. Whitney, California and a few good day hikes up in Lassen County, California.

Get out there~
